Would you abuse a baby to entertain a crowd?-Vancouver Humane Society

[SeeGeeWhy]

Question: Would you burn and trash your own city because a sports team that plays half of its games in your city lost one of those games?

Humans riding bears, bears riding horses, too many awesome images in my head right now.

As well, this reminds me - I need to write the IOC a letter submitting my idea that the Olympics needs a new event in line with modern times and entertainment value - Bear Equestrian.

Everyone knows that from endagered spieces funding to animal rights abuses that the value of an animal is directly proportional to its cuteness.

Hence Steer wrestling is less bad than calf roping. And endagered mammals fair far better than birds, reptiles, or insects.

What about bears abusing babies? I'm sure that happens every now and then. Do we have to ban bears too???

[wookster]

Besides, the bulls get their revenge during the "running of the bulls" in Europe...Kinda evens out in my IMO.

Anyone who is very anti-rodeo better should try going to a ranch during branding season, they will think a rodeo is a picnic compared to that...

Can we fwd this response back to the VHS?

Bull fighting is the sickest sport on earth. Mexico and Spain should get an ad campaign from the Vancouver Humane Society.

It is abuse for me to be entertained by the Young Canadians.

Make no mistake, given the opportunity, a cow would abuse your baby for the amusement of the herd.

^^^ Don't let the name fool you, it's more of a metal screen to allow meat and matter to slucie through.

[undercoverbrother]

if it was a canucks fan yes.

Oh Vancouver.....

You deal with your drug problems by bringing them into a "safe" environment.



So butt out while Alberta relives her traditional ranch heritage in a controlled environment.

I would eat that cow and I would eat that baby.

[Rerun]

I find it amusing in the pic in the OP that the calf in fact looks slightly smaller than the baby..

In fact the average calf weight, in roping events, is about 250 lbs.

[sun]

Ugh, nothing annoys me more than when people compare a human being to an animal in this way. A calf is not equivalent to a human being no matter how cute you make it look.

[sun]

Also, the calf in the ad is much closer to three days old than three months old.

[Daradon]

It is telling they don't have the money to sick PETA on us this year.

That said, no thanks? Even my awesome Simpson quote?

[Canuck-Hater]

Do people actually still go to Rodeos?
